What exactly should the driver break?
Typo I guess. Should have been "brakes" but it is written "breaks" instead. Well... you know PD is Japanese company and Japanese is common with "Engrish", although I didn't expected in a game like GT because it never happened before. Tbh, pretty funny if it is intentional for it's driving position...

Can't be quiet after this blasphemy . To you guys who prefer this over any real McLaren, because they're in other games: well, that's the whole POINT!
<<< Having our favourite, legendary cars behaving realistically in our beloved GT should be the goal for the "real driving simulator">>>
Whatever. Looks cool thou, i'll give you that. Like Hot Wheels cool.

Definitely a nice welcome to the VGT list of cars. Looks really striking, especially in all black w/ red accents. Didn't expect a VGT car from McLaren, since the brand isn't listed under the original list of brands that participate in the VGT project. 👍

In my mind VGT program would be useful to create cars that are not possible because of money but companies have shown their interest to create them.
LMP1H is arguably one of the most thrilling regulations in history. Mercedes, Ferrari, BMW, Mclaren, Peugeot.. have shown more or less interest on making an LMP1, but it didn't happen because various reasons.
Why not use VGT to recreate those machines and put them to race with the real LMP1 H?
Instead of that we get cars that are almost completely fake.

Slightly off topic, actually McLaren have another alternative for their VGT, the MP4-X. However, this wasn't meant to be a VGT project, just to showcase the future of F1 technology. And it is strikingly resembles Red Bull X car.
Here is the comparison with Red Bull X 2010 :
So, this or McLaren "Ultimate" VGT?

Nope, it uses a 4 liter V8 that I presume is the same as in the 720S.
Thus car was a welcome surprise to wake up to given that we were never given any teasers whatsoever. Given that it's caled the "Ultimate" Vision GT I bet this is a technology preview for future Ultimate Series models. They have said about the possibility of future models having all wheel drive via front electric motors. I believe they also have an EV in the pipeline.
134 horsepower but it weighs one pound.I'm tired, so I read "McLaren Reveals 1,134hp Vision Gran Turismo Car for GT Sport" as them revealing 1 VGT car that was 134hp.
I'm actually disappointed that's not the case, I thought it'd be an interesting take.

Now that is something I would definitely like to see.

Most real cars - the most appealing for sure - are in all other racing games. So if you don't want a P1 because it's part of other racing games, why would you want any other real car that's part of those games? That leaves you with the less appealing real cars + fictional exclusive content.
I mean, that's OK. It just doesn't make any sense for a company to produce and make money of, especially PD. That's why I said Ridge Racer, because that game didn't pretend to be a real simulator or anything related to the real world.
If your statement was just the result of excitement, you can forget my response.

I'm still put off a bit about the driving position.
Yeah, it's an extra 10 aerodynamic horsepower points on the whatever scale, and it's so disconnected from say sitting upright in a chair and playing the game.

We've got enough VGTs in the Gr.1 , now all i want them to do is to bring the 919 Hybrid and the Ginneta LMP1

The aim of the VGT programme is to show off a manufacturer, if the public can't see any visual link with what they can buy in the showroom today then what's the point? How does it differ then from the made up cars you see in GTA for example? This goes against the whole point of design language, your in essence showing a concept without branding attached, its just pure fantasy.
Also the fact that PD are probably wasting 6 months modelling each of these cars when they could be doing a production car is pretty annoying.
